A WORKER ON DECK.

The Sage6yasA Stoekman, which opposed
Stewart sturdily all through the campaign,
publishes the following in its last issue:
"Senator Stewart is worker. Before he
had taken the oath Of Office or donned the
Senatorial toga he succeeded in getting
measures passed which his predecessor had
for six years vainly underworld to have con.
sidered. Honor to whom honor is DUE"
In this connection it may be as well to
mention the establishment of daily mail
route between Carson and Glenbrook. Two
days before Stewart left for Washington he
was asked if he would try and have a daily
mail route established instead of a tri week.

"See about it."

3 Mr.. Bences Of Carson, was here the first Of
this week endeavoring'to obtain contract
to make mapof Lyon county. He brought
with him map Of Ormsby county, and on
Monday, when the Commissioners met,
placed it before them and explained wherein
it would save the county the price Of the
map in a short time. The price asked wss
5000, and it is estimated by the Assessor and
Recorder that it would not take over two
years to pay for itself in the matter Of con-
venience, and also in enabling the Assessor
to assess lands that are owned by individu.
ais who are not known. We believe that
this map would be of great benefit to the
TAXPAYERS. Itis supposed that there are now
numerous TRACTS of land.in this county that
are owned by stockmen, but that is claimed
by them to belong to the government. This
property is of course lest by the Assessor, as
he now has no. means of learning who the
land is owned-by, unless it be at great ex.
pense to himself. Again this land being
held by large owners prevents other parties
from coming in and settling on it. The land
may not be owned by these parties, but is
held by them; and settlers are not able to
tell which land is not taken. A map Of the
kind Mr.. Bence proposes, would at once
show who had titles to land and how the
titles are acquired. At the present time the
Commissioners did not think the county was
able to make the purchase Of this map, but
looked upon the proposition favorably, and,
probably as soon as the funds are little
easier will have the map.

HOW TO GET A FREE FARM IN
DAKOTA.

Mr.. Joel Benton tells, in his article on
Dakota in the March Cosmopolitan. how one
may get free farm in that great and pro-
ductive State. He says:
The two classes Of land open for settle
ment are government and railroad lands.
Nearly all the former, east Of the Missouri
River, which is frst.elass, is now disposed
Of. There is, however, plenty of railroad
land that can be bought at from two dollars
to six dollars per acre, and on FIVE years
time. The variation in price depends upon
the quality and location. There are three
ways to obtain government land; namely,
by the Homestead Law, by presumption, and
by timber c ultures Any person over twenty.

stead claim. The party SO doing must put
UP hoHse of some sort, which he is willing
to live in. He must live on the claim for five
years, and pay from four to eight dollars for
land.of6ce fees. But he can gain title at
once by paying one dAllar and twenty-five
cents or two dollars and fifty cents per acre i.

cuttings, or seeds the third year; and begin.
ming the second year breaks another five acres,
and cultivates and plants the third and fourth
years. After these ten acres Of future wood
land are started, they must be kept alive for
four years more, or eight years from the date
Of his entry. If at that time he can show
six thousand seven hundred and fifty healthy

four dollars land office fees. BY proper man
agement one person can sometimes get land
by all these methods, or four hundred and

STATE CONTRACTS.


The resolution introduced by Briggs order
ing the Attorney General to investigate and
proceed under Section i.7ro which prohibits
State officers from being directly or indirectly
interested in State contracts, resulted in a
committee being appointed to assist the Attor.
uey Generalin arriving at the facts. The first
notice of the infringement Of the law which
came before theLegislature was the reading Of
section 1910 by Senator Wester6eld in the Act
providing fer payment to Miller q Schmitt of
mnety odd dollars for supplies furnished the
State Printing Office. The Act provides thai
no officer of the States nor county officer, nor
City Trus toe can be directly or indirectly
interested in a State contract. The committee
consists Of Briggs. Foley and Sharon in inves-
tigating the matter didnot seek for amy futher
light in the case ofMiller & Schmitt as they
claimed that it was matter beyond the con-
troll Of the Legislature and that if any law
had been violated it was within the jurisdic-
tion of the; county authorities to correct it.
They found that State Treasurer Tuay was
the President Of the gas company of Carson
City and held stock in the company, also
that the price the State paid for the gas was
higher than charged certain individuals.
Mr.. TuAy explained this by saying that in
some instances very large private consumers
were allowed rebate. He was President of
the gas company before he was elected
Treasurer. The Secretary of the company
made the contract and he was merely stock.
holder in the compony.
The committee also ascertained that Wells
Drury while Deputy Secretary Of State was
given the contract of advertising the Consti-
tutional Amendments and received $500 for
the work. 1t was held that Deputy State
of6oers-were not amenable to the law as their
superior officers would be, while on the other
hand lawyers claim that the decisions in
cases involving the right and responsibilities
Of Deputies have given the same official
status to each. The, committee, however,
found the time too short to secure any furth-
er information in the matter, and held that
their labors were at an end after turning the
matter over the Attorney General for future
action. The Senators said that it was not
the idea of the Senate to press the matter
but 1t was for the purpose OF calling
public attention to the hitting ements Of the
law that in futute officials would be more
careful. 1t was the general oprnion that the
law had been broken more through ignorance
of its very stringent provisions than other
wise and that from this on officials will when
they 60 into Office give very careful read
ing of everything'that pertains to their de-
partments. In the case of the relations be-
tween the gas company and the State if the
matter was pressed the company could turn
off the gas and this would necessitate kero.

POSTAL TELEGRAPH.
Possibility of Uncle Sam Adopt
ing the System.
Figures showing the Immense Popularity
OF the Scheme Ia England.

WASHINGTON, Sept. s--The postal tele-
graph Of England and other European
countries has been so much OF success
that those who are studying this problem
of Government telegraph for popular
use, find themselves good deal encour-
aged In their belief that the system will
be adopted here. The latest annual report
Of the British Post-office Department
shows that the number of messages
sent by the postal telegraph sys-
tenn OF Great Britain last year was
in round numbers 40,0O0,00O. A
couple Of years ago the price OF kilograms
was put down 10 a sixpence for any part
Of the United Kingdom, and the result was
an increase OF nearly twenty per cent. ia
the volume of business. There has been
steady growth in the use Of the telegraph
by the masses since the Government took
possession Of II. The number Of messages
sent in 1870 was less than l0,OO0,O0O, in
1886, 40000,0O0 And they were carried at
q sixpcnce apiece, and a profit made, too
There has also been established within the
past few years telephone system, u part
Of the Post-officc Department, and auxil-
iary to the telegraph. There are some
thirty odd exchangcs.with thousands OF
subscribers. The Department also has
twenty.seyen miles Of pneumatic tubes in
London by which messages are sent to and
from the telegraph Offices in London. They
carry these manuscript messages in letter
boxes which shoot along under ground in
side the tubes at the rate Of thirty miles
an hour. On recent occasion when
the Irish bill was under discussion in
the House Of Commons over 100 manuscript
messages were thus sent by these tubes to
the main office Of the Governments postal
telegraph in a single nights business, and
over million and a half OF words were sent
by the wires on that same occasion. Tho
